It's just like those anti-piracy adverts and unskippable menus you get when you actually buy a dvd. I bought the damn dvd, don't give me anti-piracy adverts you tools!!! Makes you want to download it instead even more.
"Piracy is wrong. If you pirated this, you could be enjoying the movie right now instead of watching this please don't pirate this movie you bought warning"
IT'S COUNTER PRODUCTIVE!!!
The pirates will still pirate this game like they would have done and it's the legitimate customers who will suffer. You seriously gotta wonder how the prople who think up this stuff still have a job.
"I have a great idea. Lets needlessly annoy everyone who actually bought the game and have no impact on piracy at all because those who pirate it will get a patched version"
"That's an amazing idea. You can become an executive in this company!"

Except it's an overexaggeration.
The average user won't give a sh*t.
I put in the DVD, installed it, and played. No hassle.
I might get hassled if I try to install it on a bunch of different PCs, but who the hell does that anyway? For the average user, this won't matter at all.

It's mainly going to be an issue for people who actually go back and play their old games and upgrade computers every couple of years. I for one wouldn't be a happy camper if this type of bullshit was on my starcraft CD.
